This is good! All these people!

Welcome to MLR!!

[Rainbow_Rage]

I guess I should do one of these.

Hey, I'm rainbow_rage, 19 year old working for the Canadian Forces.

I've been playing the Trumpet for about 10 years now and have done pretty much everything I can do with it without going into music as a career (which I have no intention of, it's more of a hobby for me). I've also gotten decently competent on most Brass instruments (they're all pretty similar anyway). I can do anything genre wise, but I prefer Jazz, Blues, Funk and similar/derivative types. I recently started learning digital music so I can actually make complete compositions on my own and do it from my dorm room.

I not too sure what type of music I'll end up making, but I think it will mostly be Funk and Blues Funk and whatever the hell else I feel like.

Welcome!

[Bounty]

Suppose I should register here so I look a bit more serious =P

I'm 17, from England and going off to University in a couple of months. The only musical experience I have had was piano lessons around 9 years ago, and I didn't do much since then. I still have the full keyboard lying around somewhere but when I found out about digital music It was irresistible. I've been trying to make something decent since the start of the new year and largely failed, but I'm not easily discouraged =P

Sees avatar.

I don't think you can get more serious than that! Lol!

Ill get those sand rakers off our world

Sees avatar.

I don't think you can get more serious than that! Lol. Welcome! Sounds like you have a lot of determination, which is great dude!

[Ricky Denzel]

Just welcome because I wasted all of my randomness on the spam thread...

[Matthew N.]

Hmmm, haven't done one yet, so...

Hey everyone,

I'm Matt if you haven't guessed yet. I'm 22 and am studying English at a local university; first year of MA studies. I live in Poland and I hate my home country. I am interested in astronomy, WW2, Sci-Fi (I am a huuuuge fan of Stargate franchise) and I used to be a hardcore gamer. Nowadays I am devoting most of my time on studying and producing music as a hobby, and from not so long ago - MLP-related stuff.

As for the music, my favourite genres are progressive / trance. As much as I love listening to dubstep using my personal bass cannon, I suck at programming cool wubs. I've been playing around with FL while it was still named just Fruity Loops (from 2003), but I started to take the thing a little bit more seriously about 2 years ago, spending more time on reading guides, tutorials and long hours playing with VSTs.

I still use FL and I don't think I'll ever switch to more professional sw, as I don't really see myself as a pro musician in the future... though I would love to become one more than anything else.

Currently already working on a collab, but I am always up for one.

(I am a huuuuge fan of Stargate franchise)

Indeed.

[HerrPony]

Hello I´m Herr Pony,and I´m new here...well duh of course. I usually dont do pony stuff because I´m quite occupied with several non-pony projects (mostly singing for bands or musical groups), but I´ve been a brony for about a year now and every time I see somepony who made a great song I feel useless. So might as well try to get on the bandwagon that is already overloaded.

[SeventhElement]

Doing something or not, welcome to MLR!!

[Element6]

Um, hi.

I go by Element6, referring to the element of magic, because Twilight Sparkle is my favorite pony.

Some basic facts about me:

- I've never posted on a forum, well, before now.
- I'm pretty much as timid as Fluttershy around people I don't know well.
- Despite my timidity, I'm very interested in becoming more involved in the brony community.
- I'm currently a high school student.
- I've only been in music making for maybe half a year.
- I use FL Studio 10.

Hopefully I'm doing everything right. I look forward to learning more about music, and I hope to one day make songs that are enjoyable.

[Element6]

Wow, thank you so much. It's a first step of course, but I hope to get better. I'll be sure to check out some of your music as well!

[Element6]

It's certainly good to keep an open mind, so experimenting with genres can only be a positive. I would think so, anyway. I'm too new to really even have a "type" or anything, I just sort of make whatever I can. It's nice to meet you though, I've subscribed to you on YouTube after listening to a couple songs and enjoying them. Good luck with your current project!

[Shenko]

I tend to call myself Shenko, though sometimes I also call myself Proxyclaw. Here is a list:

• I'm about 17 and even I am amazed that I have made it that far
• I have been a brony since January 2011
• I fell asleep while typing this this and woke up 13 hours later
• Favorites are Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash (in that order)
• I have Acid Pro 7, working on getting Ableton Live 8
• Always assume I know nothing
• I'd like to make house and dubstep. I'm pretty sure I would be awful at dubstep though, so lets stick with house

[colortwelve]

Welcome, Shenko, and your awesome avatar!

[Kenneth Invictus]

Don't worry about using audacity bro
I used audacity to make my first 6 or 7 songs, and they all came out pretty well.
I still use it to record my guitars!

Good to know! Thanks Kyoga!
